Suggester says, "I just have to say that this is an amazing peice, not only it it well composed and great in that way, but the really tragical story behind this image shakes me to the core so much, I mean, those gasmasks are for kids, and that was a school. It's truly a tragical piece of history that burns into my mind. Well worth a notice!" Chernobyl Wallpaper 2 by *lordyo

This is a very eerie and frightening shot, no matter how petrified the place is. Just by how everything is so cluttered and decayed, you know that something tragic in a catastrophic scale took place several years ago. At first glace I thought those were limbs of baby dolls.

You have some pretty amazing pictures! I loved looking through you Flickr account and reading about it. It makes you wonder what was going on when this image was created. What happened to the kids... Why are all the masks left in this state... So many unanswered questions... Someday, I will go there :)
